Possible causes Solution<br />
Filter element clogged. Change the filter element (see Chapter 9.1).<br />
Only AUTOClean: Clean filter element (see<br />
chapter 8.2).<br />
Monitoring electronics malfunction. Send to a Festool service workshop for repair.<br />
Wet extraction. Functional reliability not affected, no actions<br />
required.<br />
8 Working<br />
8.1 Handling<br />
Hose store: after finishing work, you can<br />
feed the suction hose through the recess [8-<br />
3] and place it in the hose store. You can do<br />
the same with the mains cable through the<br />
other recess [8-2].<br />
SysDoc Systainer attachment system: a<br />
Systainer can be attached to the storage<br />
area via the two slides [8-1].<br />
8.2 AUTOClean - Cleaning the main<br />
filter (only versions with Auto-<br />
Clean)<br />
To maintain a constant suction power when<br />
extracting fine dust, you can adjust the frequency<br />
of the automatic [1-8] cleaning system<br />
in infinite variables using the rotary<br />
knob. Always use the automatic cleaning<br />
system in combination with a disposal bag<br />
(in line with dust class 'M' requirements).<br />
Before performing wet extraction tasks<br />
or working with a filter bag, set the [1-<br />
8] rotary knob to position 0.<br />
Set the automatic cleaning function to the<br />
highest setting when [1-8] extracting<br />
large quantities of dust.<br />
Manual cleaning<br />
If the suction power decreases, cleaning<br />
can be started manually by turning<br />
the switch [1-11] to the AC symbol<br />
positioned on either side of the switch.<br />
We recommend cleaning the main filter<br />
completely if severely clogged:<br />
Cover the end of the nozzle or suction<br />
hose with your hand for 2 seconds.<br />
Turn the switch [1-11] to the AC symbol.<br />
When the CT-VS closing slide is used (order<br />
no.: 497926), the filter can be<br />
cleaned fully without removing the connected<br />
electric power tools.<br />
In intensive applications that generate adherent<br />
dust, it may be necessary to clean the<br />
filter element mechanically under certain circumstances<br />
(extract). Wear a dust mask!<br />
8.3 Special features of the CTM 36 E<br />
AC-LHS<br />
To use the mobile dust extractor in combination<br />
with the PLANEX:<br />
Use the accompanying kink-resistant suction<br />
hose D 36 mm x 3.5 m-AS.<br />
Use the accompanying special suction<br />
sleeve to connect the PLANEX.<br />
Insert the accompanying CT-VS closing<br />
slide between the intake opening [1-2]<br />
and the suction hose.<br />
Fit the tool holder as described in the accompanying<br />
installation instructions.<br />
When performing extraction work with the<br />
PLANEX, always use disposal bags to prevent<br />
dust from escaping into the surrounding<br />
area.<br />
8.4 Extracting dry materials<br />
CAUTION<br />
Hazardous dust<br />
Damage to the respiratory passage<br />
Use a filter or disposal bag when extracting<br />
hazardous materials!<br />
Do not use the machine if the volumetric<br />
flow monitoring function is inactive.<br />
Observe the following when extracting<br />
dust generated by operating electric power<br />
tools:<br />
If the exhaust air is discharged back into the<br />
room, the air renewal rate L within the<br />
room must be sufficient. The volume of air<br />
discharged back into the room must not exceed<br />
50% of the fresh air volume flow (room<br />
volume V R x air renewal rate L W). Observe all<br />
the relevant regional regulations.
